muneca1029 117 Posted September 3, 2013 Hey guys I had a really really bad day today my hubby loves sushi and so do I.. Well I've been really good at not giving in to temptations and actually feed my son with no problem but today my husband decided to buy sushi ( spicy crab rolls) I couldn't help it and gave in. But to be more exact it was wrapped with seaweed and it only had crab with avocado I'm on soft foods so I did chew really good and did not eat the seaweed either. My concern is wether wether anyone knows if its ok or not? Also I had 9 small rolls and it didn't bother me at all.. I don't want to put myself in jeopardy either.. If anyone knows please let me know thanks. I will call my nutritionist tomorrow to ask her as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soocalchic 1,087 Posted September 3, 2013 Quick throw up!!! Just kidding if you are cleared for soft food you should be ok.. If you're not uncomfortable why bother getting all worked up for 1 jensjoy28 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
becogolfer 68 Posted September 3, 2013 I was told no sushi or sashimi till my 3 month check with my nutritionist. The reason. given was there is cooncern that raw fish can have parasites that a normal stomach can handle with enough acid. After 3 months it is safe i was told. I just ate sashimi for the first time this past sat. I had half an avacado salad with 9 thin sashimi pieces. The restaurant was so great about it. My wife and i were regulars before surgery. The gave me 4 oz of sashimmi instead of just a number of pieces. I only at 3 oz and had the remainder as a snack later. Delicious Protein.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jensjoy28 351 Posted September 3, 2013 So, just to make sure I've got clear picture, you had 9 small pieces of sushi sans seaweed, but was there rice? If no rice, then I don't see an issue...although 9 pieces does seem like a decent volume and more than I could do at 4 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert_rowe 2 Posted September 11, 2013 Sushi literally translate from Japanese as rice. If they ate sushi they ate rice. My doctor told me that sushi rice doesn't swell like regular rice and is safe to eat. Just take it slow to make certain that you don't have any problems eating it. Nine small rolls is not a lot of rice. Robert Rowe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NMJG 1,266 Posted September 11, 2013 I had sashimi this weekend. Heaven! Went down easily, but could only eat 2 of the 5 pieces (largish pieces). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ever since than I've been finding myself eating avocado everyday like a quart of an avocado if not less. I hope that's fine lol.. Thank you for the info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert_rowe 2 Posted September 12, 2013 Avocado is great but its really high I'm fat. I like it in taco salad sometimes. Its good in sushi too. Robert Rowe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexasMiss 314 Posted September 12, 2013 9? I had 4 pieces last night and thought I was going to pop lol. I felt guilty eating it, but I had the calories and carbs and recorded in in MFP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert_rowe 2 Posted September 13, 2013 There different size pieces of sushi. If they're made with a half sheet of nori they're actually quite small. It would still be a good idea to keep your quantity small though. Robert Rowe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
